The Hype

Between yesterday and today, I got 10 new books. Four of them, I didn't have to pay for. Gotta love that trade-in thing at the used bookstore.

One of them was The Name of the Wind by Patrick Rothfuss—but I did have to pay for this one. Since I have a Books-a-Million discount card, I didn't pay full price. You should be proud of me. It's really popular, and now I'm going to find out why it's such a big deal.

After I've finished two of the other books I started. A Teresa Medeiros—of course!—and, I think, a newcomer. Entwined by Heather Dixon.

REALLY GOOD NEWS: I found The Foundling by Lloyd Alexander. It's the unofficial 6th book of the Prydain Chronicles. It's a collection of short stories that take place before the Prydain Chronicles begin.

Good Monday-Tuesday. Oh yeah, and I spent some time with my buddy in GPort. ;-P
